You're listening to the human upgrade with Dave Asprey.

Today's a special upgrade spotlight edition of the show

recorded at my studios here in Austin, Texas.

We're going to talk about what of my favorite things on the entire planet.

And, no, it's not bio-wracking.

Hold on a fan. And it's not butter. It's not butter.

It is this molecule here on my arm.

And if you're just listening, I'm pointing to the caffeine molecule tattooed on my left bicep.

Why caffeine?

Because Mother nature provides everything we need at least if we want to die at an early age so maybe she doesn't do that.

She provides everything you need to at least reproduce.

But that includes smart drugs.

And there's two all natural plant-based vegan smart drugs.

Not that that means they're good for you. But they are. And it's caffeine and

nicotine. We're not going to talk about nicotine in this and if you're

offended. No, I'm not saying you should smoke or use tobacco. I'm just saying that pharmaceutical nicotine

reverses Alzheimer's diseases in multiple studies going back to 1986 and it is a well

study newropic. But we'll set that one aside. It's just one of the two major known things

that are out there that humans have used for a long time because we love it when our brains work better. By now,

you probably can guess what the other one is. Yeah, it's caffeine. Why

caffeine? Tell you a little story about caffeine. Back when I started, bulletproof, the record, I am no longer affiliated anyway.

My new coffee company is called Danger Coffee because who knows what you might do.
